Say goodbye to that nagging shoulder, sore knees, and post-pickleball regrets—this wellness spot is changing the pain game without pills or downtime
Let’s face it—most of us don’t think about pain relief until we need it. Maybe you tweaked your back lifting a beach cooler. Or woke up after a long golf weekend feeling like someone swapped your joints with rusty hinges. Or maybe it’s just been a slow build—the kind of discomfort you’ve been quietly dealing with for months.
That’s where Laser Lab Murrells Inlet steps in—and trust us, it’s not your average wellness clinic. Located just off Plaza Drive, this sleek little haven is helping locals ditch the ice packs and ibuprofen in favor of something way more effective: high-tech, drug-free recovery that actually works. Here are six ways Laser Lab is helping people around the Grand Strand move better, feel better, and get back to living their lives—pain-free.
Laser Therapy That Works While You Relax
Laser Lab’s star player is their Class IV Summus Medical Laser, which sounds fancy—and is. This deep-tissue laser therapy targets pain and inflammation at the cellular level and kickstarts your body’s natural healing process.
You’ll feel it working during the session, but the real magic shows up in the days after—especially if you’re battling joint pain, arthritis, or recovering from a sports injury. It’s totally non-invasive and doesn’t require you to do anything except relax while the laser gets to work.
Light Beds That Help You Sleep Better (and Look Better)
If your body’s been feeling run-down or you’ve been craving deeper sleep or smoother skin, Laser Lab’s Vita Dynamic Light Therapy Beds are about to become your new obsession.
Red and near-infrared light help calm inflammation, boost your mood, and support your immune system. You’ll leave feeling like you just came from a nap, a facial, and a meditation session all rolled into one.
Recovery Boots That Feel Like a Spa Day for Your Legs
You know those massive moon boots pro athletes wear after a game? Laser Lab has those. They’re called Normatec Compression Boots, and they’re a game-changer if you deal with sore muscles, swelling, or circulation issues.
You’ll sit back, get zipped in, and feel waves of compression massage your legs from your toes up. Great after a run, a workout, or just a long day on your feet. Bonus: it’s weirdly addicting.
The Shake Plate That’s Better Than Another Cup of Coffee
Yes, it looks like a vibrating platform from a futuristic gym but Laser Lab’s Vibration Plate Therapy actually helps with way more than you’d think. It boosts circulation, wakes up your muscles, and helps improve balance, especially important if you’re dealing with osteoporosis or just feel a little unsteady lately. It’s like a mini full-body workout that doesn’t involve sweating. Count us in.
Supplements That Actually Do Something
Not all vitamins are created equal and Laser Lab knows it. That’s why they stock Thorne® health supplements, a clinical-grade line trusted by healthcare pros and Olympic athletes alike. Whether you’re looking to support your joints, sharpen your focus, boost your immune system, or improve gut health, Thorne has a targeted formula for it. No fluff, no fillers—just real-deal wellness support that works behind the scenes while you go about your day.
A Team That’s Been There, Done That and Actually Cares
What really sets Laser Lab apart? The people.
Tamara Cousins, the clinic’s co-founder and manager, found her way to laser therapy after dealing with chronic pain herself. Now she’s on a mission to help others feel the same relief—minus the prescription pad. She’s the kind of person who remembers your name, asks about your weekend, and genuinely celebrates your progress.
Her husband Pete Cousins, who leads the clinic’s business development, spent 25 years in the medical device world and even hosts a podcast about laser therapy. And Dr. Heather Hinshelwood (yes, she’s a Navy Commander too) leads their medical direction with a focus on holistic, root-cause healing.
It’s a small, tight-knit team that believes recovery should be accessible, modern, and tailored to you.
Don’t Wait Until You’re in Pain
You don’t have to be broken to book an appointment. Maybe you just want to sleep better, recover faster from workouts, or give your immune system a boost. Laser Lab isn’t just about fixing problems, it’s about optimizing how you feel day to day.
And if you’re already dealing with chronic pain or a nagging injury? Now’s the time.
Because let’s be honest: life’s too short to sit out the things you love because your body won’t cooperate.
